Crispy chicken topped with creamy spinach and crunchy French-fried onions for a delicious main dish.
Ingredients:
  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 0.75 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 (3 ounce) can French-fried onions, divided
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • sea salt to taste
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 0.25 cup coconut oil
  • 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 tablespoon liquid amino acid (such as Bragg®), or to taste
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) for the perfect bake.
  • Combine fresh spinach, savory Parmesan cheese, creamy cream cheese, most of the French-fried onions, tangy lemon juice, minced garlic, sea salt, and a dash of black pepper in a bowl; evenly spread the mixture into a glass baking dish.
  • Bake in a preheated oven until warmed through and thickened, for about 15 minutes. Sprinkle the rest of the French-fried onions over the spinach mixture and bake for an additional 5 minutes until the onions are golden brown.
  • In a large skillet, warm coconut oil over medium-high heat. Carefully sear chicken in the hot oil, cover with a lid, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Plate the chicken and generously spoon the spinach mixture over the top.
